Behind Song Zheng, King Pingtian devoured his servants and guards, and walked step by step alone. His feet were dull but he could shrink into an inch and follow easily.
She was thoughtful: a true dragon phantom, and a true dragon phantom with three heads and three tails. Calculating it this way, will she continue to advance to nine heads and nine tails in the future?
The human race is really going to be in chaos, and all these "rebellious" virtual spirits have appeared.
A thought occurred in her mind: If this is the case, it seems that the king does not need to be so cautious.
…
Two days later, on the border of Fuzhou state, a capable Xiu army was waiting in formation under the scorching sun.
There were a thousand people in the military formation, all in neat order, standing upright and motionless in the sun. Tonghaiwei Qianhu Humingtang and his hundreds of subordinates waited patiently at the front of the military formation, glancing at the official road from time to time.
Hu Mingtang has some skills. In a gentle town like Jiangnan, it is indeed not easy to train his Qian Tong Haiwei to such perfection.
He also knows his abilities, so this time Master Song is coming to Fuzhou, he naturally wants to show off his most proud achievements.
Moreover, he led his army to the state border in person to show his "diligence" to Lord Song.
Near noon, a team came from a distance, and there was a faint sound of rolling thunder. Hu Mingtang and his men were a little strange. They looked at him from afar and said in a suspicious tone: "Is this Qianhu wrong?
Lord Song brought a cavalry? They rode insect beasts?"
Hundreds of people under my command started talking: "My lord, have you seen it too? My subordinates thought I was wrong."
"That's a beast fighting knight. We also have a fighting beast riding knight in Jiangnan?"
No one is asking for trouble by saying that the Fighting Beast Rider is a weapon of the dynasty. According to regulations, no one or any army except the Forbidden Army can possess the Fighting Beast Rider.
The team didn't seem to be moving very fast, but it didn't take long to get close.
Although the military formation was not deliberately activated, the Heavenly Silkworm Thunder Tiger combined with the intimidating effect of the "Beast King Phase" was activated, and the originally orderly and solemn momentum of the Tonghai Guardi Camp was instantly disrupted.
Hu Mingtang sensed something and looked back: the military formation was still the same military formation, and the soldiers were still the same soldiers. They still stood upright without even making small movements.
But he just didn't have the vigorous and capable momentum he had just now.
He guessed that it might have something to do with Lord Song's fighting beast training, but he still couldn't explain the specific reason, so he had to wave his hand: "That's all, relax..."
Then he led hundreds of households to greet Song Zheng: "Master Song, you have had a hard journey."
The closer you get, the more powerful and terrifying the Celestial Silkworm Thunder Tiger Fighting Beast Xiuqi is. The insect beast is huge in size, has bright armor, and cold magic weapons.
Hu Mingtang is an eight-foot-tall tall man. Standing on the ground, he can only reach the knees of Tiancan Leihu...
The knights on the Insect Beast are all highly skilled in cultivation, far exceeding the average Longyi Guard Captain.
He and his subordinates were all shocked: looking at the momentum, I am afraid that the fighting beast Xiuqi of the Capital Forbidden Army is no match.
Song Zheng also rode a Celestial Silkworm Thunder Tiger. Not to mention, this insect beast was loyal and obedient to its master. It was huge in size and had a spacious back. The saddle was like a roofless sedan. Sitting on it was much more comfortable than riding a horse.
He waved his hand to Hu Mingtang: "No need to be so polite, just lead the way to Black Python Ridge."
He pointed to the Qiantian camp again: "We don't need so many soldiers and horses. Let the brothers go back first. The cavalry around me is enough."
"Yes." Hu Mingtang agreed in a muffled voice, and ordered a few close followers to follow him, while the rest led Tiying back to Fucheng.
He claimed to have the ability to train soldiers, so he pulled out his brothers and wanted to show off in front of the adults. Unexpectedly, he received a sap in front of him, and Master Song actually had a fighting beast warrior under his command.
Before anything happened, the morale of his Ti camp had been exhausted, and it looked no different from ordinary Xiu troops.
"Alas" he lamented in his heart.
The two parties met and spent another half day arriving at Tianying Mountain at the junction of Fuzhou and Yuzhou.
Black Python Ridge is a high ridge in Tianying Mountain. It covers a vast area and looks like a giant python rising into the sky. The mountain is covered with black rocks, hence its name.
Hu Mingtang saw several figures rushing out of the mountain from a distance, looking a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but frowned and muttered: "What's going on?"
He landed and met those people.
When those people saw Hu Mingtang, they felt as if they had seen a savior. They knelt down with mournful faces and said, "Qianhu, it's useless for us to wait. Black Python Ridge has been occupied by people from Yuzhou."
Hu Mingtang frowned, these people were the guards he arranged in Black Python Ridge.
"What's going on? Don't panic. Tell the truth."
"Ximen Hong, the governor of Yuzhou, came with three thousand soldiers and occupied the Black Python Ridge without any explanation. My subordinates came up to argue with them, but Ximenhong refused to argue with me and ordered his subordinates to forcefully drive us away.
, saying that Heimang Ridge is also their Yuzhou territory and should be under their jurisdiction."
Song Zheng also heard this and asked, "Has Yuzhou Longyi Guards ever come forward?"
"I have never seen Long Yiwei in Yuzhou." The hundred households didn't know Song Zheng, but the officials knew him, and they answered honestly.
At this moment, a stream of jade talisman flew towards him. Li Sanyan reached out to catch it, opened it and said to Song Zheng: "Sir, this is the news from Longyi Guard of Yuzhou: the news about Black Python Ridge was leaked, and the state capital
The Yamen has deliberately intervened, so let us be careful."
By the way, he handed Song Zheng a secret message sent with the jade talisman. Song Zheng took a look at it and it read: Ximen Hong, a literary scholar in the third year of Daxi, spent ten years in various states in the south of the Yangtze River, and was a county magistrate.
.I entered the capital three years ago, and was introduced by Master Bai Guyan here to meet the Chief Assistant. Later, my official career was prosperous, and I moved to Yuzhou Prefecture in three years.
Dajian was the first reign title of the emperor when he ascended the throne, and it was also the one the emperor insisted on using.
Yuzhou Longyi Guards sent this secret message, telling Song Zheng that Ximen Hong was the chief assistant. The battle between the chief assistant and the commander was also endless.
The last time Song Zheng transported cultivation materials to the north, the Chief Assistant also wanted to intervene, but unfortunately he failed.
Song Zheng kept this account in mind, but he didn't expect that they would interfere with it this time. Song Zheng secretly sneered.
He rubbed it with his hands, and the secret culture turned into ashes. It seemed that the news was leaked by Yuzhou Longyi Guard. He sent an official document to inform Yuzhou Longyi Guard, but he did not expect to attract Ximen Hong.
Hu Mingtang asked cautiously: "Sir, what should we do?"
Afraid of Ximen Hong? That is impossible. Long Yiwei never knows what fear is. But the other party is a governor after all, and things must be handled carefully to avoid causing trouble that is difficult to solve.
Song Zheng glanced ahead. There were continuous mountains, and the Black Python Ridge could not be seen here. However, high in the sky, there were dark blue void thunder and lightning flashing from time to time.
Most of them are net-like lightning, but occasionally there will be an extremely long line of several thousand feet, like a huge lightsaber, cutting through the entire sky.
This is a sign that the void is extremely unstable. If there is really the Moon River spiritual realm behind the void, it means that it may rush out at any time and merge into the world.
Song Zheng made a decision, knocked on the saddle and said: "Attack, target Black Python Ridge."
"Yes!" Bao Tao Guard responded in agreement.
Hu Mingtang thought that he had already seen the power of the Heavenly Silkworm Thunder Tiger Fighting Beast Rider on the state border, but the next time Song Zheng knocked on the beast saddle and gave the order, with the intention of fighting, he really saw what the Beast Fighting Rider was.
!
The five hundred beast riders changed instantly.
He saw that the originally somewhat lazy Tiancan Leihu was full of energy and exerted all his strength; he saw the eyes of the knights flashing with blazing fighting spirit, and an explosive and terrifying aura roared across, rising into the sky, and Hu Mingtang was beaten all over his body.
Shivering, I subconsciously wanted to stay away from the cavalry.
Several hundred households under him also sensed it. They looked at each other and saw deep shock in each other's eyes.
Hu Mingtang looked at it and thought to himself: It is obvious that this cavalry is not at its limit if it has never set up a military formation.
He couldn't help but be a little worried: If the court knew about such a powerful army, it would be a serious crime of beheading. Bringing such an army to appear in front of Ximen Hong would be tantamount to handing over the handle to the chief minister.
It's really unwise.
He shook his head secretly and wanted to go forward to persuade him, but he was not familiar with Song Zheng and did not dare to speak.
Boom, boom, boom
Five hundred beast warriors attacked, and all obstacles in the mountains were like walking on flat ground in front of the powerful beasts. They broke into Tianying Mountain. The beasts in the mountain sensed the aura from a distance and fled in advance with their tails between their legs.
Song Zheng contacted Xiao Zhen privately. Xiao Zhen had just finished a battle today. When he heard Song Zheng's request, he said angrily: "Child's play!"
Song Zheng said: "Your Excellency, you think this is not feasible?"
Xiao Zhen thought about the emperor's virtue, sighed helplessly, and said: "You are right, the emperor will 90% agree."
"Okay, I'll tell the emperor, don't make too much trouble."
"Yes, I have always been kind to others."
Xiao Zhen said "hehe" to him and cut off the contact.
…
By tea time, they had already advanced to the outskirts of Black Python Ridge.
When we arrived here, we encountered the first line of defense of Yuzhou soldiers.
Song Zheng sat on the beast and looked at it from a distance, frowning. The Yuzhou state soldiers were well organized, with three thousand people centered on Heimang Ridge, following the surrounding mountain topography, and deployed three lines of defense according to local conditions.
The defense line is not simply formed in a circle. Instead, it occupies favorable terrain in different areas according to the distance and height. Infantry, cavalry, archers, and forced troops cooperate with each other to ensure that any position that is attacked will immediately be able to launch the most effective attack.
counterattack.
"This Ximen Hong knows military affairs, or he has a good general under his command." He thought to himself: "It seems that the chief assistant is very ambitious and wants to join the army."
The world will be in chaos. If that day really comes, all power will be in vain without Xiujun in hand. The chief minister must also understand this.
